Hi Katana,

Thanks for those stats. I read the american ones and cringed. Axes are considered "knives" for those stats, knives are knives unless they are "martial arts weapons" (or is that for nunchaku?), and oddly enough, the stats for "assault with/without a weapon" is lower than that "with" a weapon, suggesting that the number on the bar graph is either a mean or median. In other words: yuck!
